Torrance Candy Cane Lane — Attraction in Torrance

I personally think that taking your car through the neighborhood has got to be the least best way to experience this.

There's just too much to see in so little space that you're gonna miss a lot if being forced to move along at the pace of cars in front of you. No traffic control most areas so just relying on everyone communicating effectively, which slows things down further at intersections.

Also, though I know it's just one day of the year and all, it feels wasteful to me to have your engine basically idling for an hour... and again, still probably be feeling rushed at times.

Torrance Candy Cane Lane is a cherished tradition for my family, a radiant display of Christmas lights illuminating the front yards of homes.

Parking and taking a leisurely stroll through the neighborhood is the best way to relish the extravagant Christmas decorations adorning each house.

An added delight are the vendors selling hot chocolate and tamales, enhancing the enchanting atmosphere with warmth and savory treats. Amidst the sea of lights, our family finds solace and joy, making every annual visit a treasured moment to...

Okay we always enjoy coming to Candy Cane Lane here in Torrance during the Christmas holidays! :-) it is a fantastic Wonderland of beautiful homes all decked out for the holidays! The best way to experience it is to park your car and walk around the neighborhood area! Though you can drive, somehow that doesn't do the trick! And you will find people selling warm drinks and other goodies along some of the homes! Highly recommend getting there early before it gets dark and that way you can find a convenient place to park! Happy holidays to everyone and enjoy the holiday...
